Fresh fish and chips in Kensal Green
Cannot we just order from the chip shop?
A DIY buffet works for small groups. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and nobody has to miss the wedding.
Doing the food yourself saves money, but the host ends up running around. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Wedding fish and chip van in Kensal Green, cooked to order
Evening food keeps the party going, and few things are as welcome as hot fish and chips late in the evening. Typical bookings include weddings in a marquee or garden and laid-back receptions, with haddock and chips, mushy peas and sausage and chips.
In Kensal Green, parking for suppliers is part of the plan. Many London venues have a loading bay or yard, which is ideal for the van. Food is served straight from the hatch, so it’s hot and generous, and service is quick once we’re up and running.

The menu, dish by dish
Curry sauce
Chip-shop curry sauce is a mild, slightly sweet British classic, great with chips and sausages.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.

Planning for dietary needs
Tell us about dietary needs and allergies early, and we’ll tell you honestly what we can offer. To get it right:
- Put bins near the van
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Talk to us about evening numbers
- Name a friend or coordinator as our contact
It is kind to include suppliers working late when you give us numbers.
A string of lights by the hatch makes a great photo.
Where the van can park in Kensal Green
We will be honest if a spot won’t work. The main points are:
- The site’s agreement to a catering van
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- Light near the van and the queue for evening service
Kensal Green is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking can be tight: let us know about off-street space or permits.
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

How it works
We need time before service to bring the fryers up to heat, so we always arrive well ahead of your serving time. Winter weddings in Kensal Green are dark by about 3:55pm, so plan a lit path from the party to the van, while a June wedding has light until about 9:20pm.
- Send us your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Everything is fried to order as the queue moves.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Formal evening food costs more and slows the party down. Fish and chips from the hatch keeps it informal. Fish and chip van prices depend on the booking. A one-hour staff lunch is a different job from serving all afternoon at a fête. Your quote spells it all out.
